To São Nicolau you must want to go, because the trip is already an adventure in itself.

From Europe there are two ways to get to São Nicolau:

Fly to São Vincente, then the irregular ferry to Tarrafal / São Nicolau or the short flight with TACV to São Nicolau. There are at least three regular flights per week.

Fly to Sal, then the short flight with TACV from Sal to São Nicolau. There are at least five regular flights per week.

In both cases you may want to spend a day on these stopovers to see the island. At Sal you can also spend a sunny day on the most fantastic beaches.
There are direct flights from all over Europe or there are flights through Lisbon. To simplify the organisation of your trip we recommend you to contact a travelagent like www.caboverdetravel.nl, www.andersreizen.be or the German agents www.seabreeze.travel or www.centertours.de.
